The Good News and the Bad

The Good News – as of tomorrow, I will be gainfully employed again.

I’ve got a job. I will be earning money. It is one that sounds like it will be very interesting and will be good on the CV. I won’t be a delinquent daughter anymore.

I am very happy.

The Bad News – as of tomorrow, I will be gainfully employed again.

It is the end of my carefree student days. I will have to wear uncomfortable shoes. I won’t be able to walk along the South Bank at 2pm on Tuesdays. I won’t be able to sleep in until 11am if I want to. I won’t be taking library breaks with Anna, Sam, Rachel and Davina to have a cup of tea and do the crossword.

I am quite sad.

How was your first day on the job?

Who has employed you and what are you doing?

Hope the gains outweigh the loss of freedom...
